Join the Business for Nature coalition

Business for Nature is a global coalition that aims to drive credible business action and policy ambition to achieve a nature-positive economy for all by 2030.

We work with 100+ international and national partners and a diverse group of businesses from all sectors, sizes and geographies. We call for policy ambition and encourage companies to assess, commit, transform and disclose on nature.

  1. Partner Criteria

BfN partners are not-for-profit organizations/platforms that have:

  1. A strategic objective to promote sustainable development and transformational change in the way businesses assess, commit, transform and disclose on nature

  2. A dedicated team with a track record of working with business on environmental sustainability for at least two years

  3. A strong business relationship and network, engaging with at least 10 companies or financial institutions

The Business for Nature coalition strives to be inclusive and hence there is no limit to the number of partner organizations. However, we strive to maintain a majority (i.e. 75%) of business membership organizations to ensure we represent a credible business voice. Our primary communication language is English.
